Print online badges

Once you have created your badge design, previewed it to check if the design is correct, you can print the badges.

There are 4 options to print the badges.

Option 1 - using filters
Go to your design via 'Badges' in the blue menu and click the green print button.

Use the green 'Print' button in the screen above to print the badge for your participants. Set the filters in the print dialog if you want to print for a specific group of participants or accompanying persons.

Choose order to print
At the top of the settings tab you can choose the order in which the badges should be printed.

Test print
By using the 'Test print' checkbox, you can choose whether this is a test print or not. 
When the checkbox is checked, the badges will be printed as a test. These badges will not count towards the printed badge(s) of the selected participant(s)/accompanying person(s).
Tip: Always print a test badge first before printing all badges, to ensure that your design fits/looks good on the badge when printed.

Choose the range of participants
In the middle part of the screen you can select the range of participants you want to print.

Filters
At the bottom of the screen you can set various filters. Depending on whether you use specific options, such as category or event collection, you can set that filter or not. 

Use the 'Only new' check box to print badges only for participants and accompanying persons who do not yet have a badge or who are marked as needing a reprint.

Print profiles tab
A default profile is set on the 'Print profiles' tab. You can't make changes to the default profile and you can't delete it. You can create a new profile with adjusted margins.


Use the plus icon to add a new profile, enter a profile name and configure all the settings. 

After saving the new profile, the icons in top of the screen are enabled.

After selecting the badge or test badge you wish to print, the following screen will appear.

You can now select the participants and accompanying persons that need to get the (test) badge.
You can either select the boxes or you can use the 'Checkbox selection tool' to 'Select From/To' and 'Deselect From/To' to allow you to quickly select or deselect a range of checkboxes. Click on one checkbox, then click on another, and both these checkboxes and all checkboxes in between will be selected or deselected.

'Select by ID' allows you to select your desired checkboxes by entering comma-separated IDs in the dialog.
